US Lawmakers set to question Trump campaign chairman

Donald Trump Jr. is interviewed by Sean Hannity on the Fox News Channel in New York Trump on Tuesday

That came in response to Sen. "I think it's been lackadaisical enforcement, and he would be an example of that lackadaisical enforcement".

Paul Manafort already has volunteered to talk to congressional intelligence committees investigating whether there was any collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government attempting to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.

Members of the House Intelligence Committee, which is investigating Russian meddling in the USA election, said they would also like to hear from Mr Trump Jr.

Grassley said Wednesday that he's asked the departments of Homeland Security and State how Veselnitskaya could be in the United States without registering under the foreign agents act or on a valid visa.

Meanwhile, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said in a statement that she wants Trump Jr. and others to testify before her panel in an open setting.

The parole expired on January 7, 2016, and a request for an extension was denied on January 4, 2016.

From the secretaries, Grassley requested "all visa records and associated documentation" for Veselnitskaya.

"It was in the previous administration [and] if there had been enforcement of the immigration laws, she wouldn't have been in the country", said Grassley.

Grassley lead the hearing as committee chairman, starting off with an opening statement that detailed job duties of the Federal Bureau of Investigation director and Wray's credentials.

After the New York Times initially reported the meeting, Trump Jr. said that he believed he would be given opposition research against Clinton and maintained that he did nothing wrong or out of the ordinary.

Aside from concerns about Manafort's legal woes, Grassley said it "obviously would be appropriate" for members of the 15-person committee to question Manafort about his role in a June 9, 2016, meeting with a Russian lawyer; Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner; and the president's son, Donald Trump Jr.

"My son Donald did a good job last night", President Trump wrote on Twitter.

Graham said that the hearing will give Trump Jr. the opportunity to tell his side of the story and that "you'll have to watch the hearing to know what I am going to say".
